Vaccine-preventable burden of nosocomially acquired antimicrobial resistant infectious morbidity in older adult AMR

Challenge

By reducing incident hospitalization in older adults, vaccination may contribute to reduction in nosocomially acquired antimicrobially resistant infection. This project aim to estimate a minimum preventive fraction of these outcomes that may be achieved through comprehensive adult vaccination programs.

Approach

Review of the literature and exploratory model development to estimate potential impact of vaccine programs in older adults on rates of nosocomial AMR infections.
